What wheels are you using? Compare with the sizes that Nils used in the referenced thread.

Are you sure, it is a 3.50 x 18? , Not a 3.00 x18? Or even a 17" wheel? What bike were they originally from?

If they are really 3.50 x 18 and easy to come by and inexpensive on top, you can buy 2 or 3 for me. I gladly pay for the shipping to the U.S.! 8)

Is absolutely right,3.00x18
I'll see if I can find more rims.
Question: the front is 16 inches can be installed without problems.

O.K. thought so. :D :D You got VFR wheels. No need to look for more of these!
Do NOT install the 16" in the front. This may turn your CBX into a suicide machine! :naughty: :naughty:
